Welcome to the Creations by AR Design Team Blog Hop! This month the Creations by AR Team is sharing creations made with the new Party Train and Frame it Train Card Templates. These templates are created for use with cutting machines, there are also PDF files available for those who do not own a cutting machine. Be sure to keep reading to see how you can win one of these new templates!

I cut the Party Train template from 7Gypsies pattern paper, Riding Hood Red and Espresso card stock, using the Silhouette Cameo, to create a Holiday Themed Train.

I used the Snowflake Texture Fades Folder to emboss the engine cab, and sponged Malted Milk paint on all pieces for more of a distressed look. The Train would be cute as a table centerpiece filled with candy, and also makes for a wonderful presentation when giving smaller gift boxes!

Want to win one of these new templates? Each of the Designers will be giving away one of these new templates! One random winner will be chosen from each Design Team Members Blog, so you'll have plenty of chances to win!

Lisa, I love the snowflake embossing you added to the cab and the while distressing! It's beginning to look like Christmas in blogland... just cant seem to get rid of the 80º temp outside! Thanks for sharing... you know I love your work :)
